Hi guys

I am currently looking a buying a set of 45 dcoe carbys for my 1979 mk2 rs2000. I was looking at buying them from weber performance in Melbourne. Also looking at running k and n filters on them. Has any body used the filters and any clearance issues. Also wanting to know what people are doing with the purge line from the fuel tank and also their is two lines coming from the distributor wanting to know what to do their as well. I have add the link to the web site. Any advise will be great as I have never had side draft before.

Hope the link works

Thanks Lachie

because you will  no longer have a legal car,just insure that fuel tank breather is still venting and have distributor changed to elec or mechanical advance then you wont need lines from dizzy.if you still run standard booster ensure you dont run vacuum of just one runner on manifold as it can cause issues.

If you dont mind buying overseas you can buy cheaper here

Send wozzah a pm. Last time i checked he sold all things weber and he should be able to point you in the right direction

on basic cost, buying the carbs OS may be cheaper, but we need to support the local guy, because if we dont, we wont have somewhere to go to get jets, or rebuild kits. We'll have to wait while the courier delivers them and if they are not exactly right..........need I go on

I hear what you're saying Ted.
But when an OEM 2004 CR250R cylinder is $800AUD+ at the local honda shop, and
Ebay USA have the cylinder, plus a piston kit, plus shipping for $450AUD, it becomes very hard to do the right thing .

Whats the car going to be used for?
 
I am putting Yamaha R1 Carbs on my 2ltr and I should get away with everything for around $500.
 
Much cheaper than 45's but if it's for race than the 45's or higher are the way to go I am lead to believe.
 
Just another option.

Hi

Car is used for club events and club track days. So it is not driven every day. I am still on the look out at the minute. I am after 45 twin webers 9 or 13 to suit 2 lt pinto. Have you had the bike carbs up and running how are they if so.

Cheers

Not up and running yet but hope to be inside a month.
 
Checkout the TurboSport UK forums as there are heaps of posts about their pros and cons.
 
From my understanding there is no benefit (i.e. more power) than that of the 45's but it's the lower costs and easer setting up that make them more popular these days.
 
Plus they apparently don't go out of tune like webbers do.
 
Have a search on TurboSport and make your own mind up.
 
If it's performance you are after and have the money then you really can't go wrong with the 45's.
 
Cheers
